From Our Students

“I love our little family meetings.” ~Maria, 12th grader

“After attending the after-school workshops for months, I spoke with Mrs. Scully after class. That conversation changed my life. She said that I might be eligible for a U-Visa because I was a victim of domestic violence. I could not stop crying. It was like someone gave me a new life. She connected me to an attorney and has stayed close to me while my paperwork is being processed.” ~Selena, 12th grader

“We all came together in a circle. We each opened up about our stories of how we came to the United States as young children and the struggles we have experienced. When I heard those other stories I could relate and connected with other classmates in a way I had never before. I am in a new place now, a safe environment, because we are all in this together.” ~Florencia, 12th grader

“You have been such an inspiration to me. Without you, the Dreamers’ Club would not have succeeded as much as we did. Thank you for all your help. It means so much to me.” ~Anayeli, College Freshman
